2022 Subaru WRX - MPG Test | Real-world Highway Fuel Economy

- While the WRX isn't quite as economical as the Civic Si, Kona N, or VW GTI, we give it an A for effort. It still managed to beat EPA while continuously variabl-ing it's transmission AND powering all 4 wheels. We consider that a win.

#subaru #wrx #mpg
Great reviews - I love that you drive them 100+ miles. There are “reviewers” that literally drive circles in the dealer’s lot and call it a review.
This has got to be one of the best scenes to frame a car review. The fall leaves and the background is just gorgeous. BTW, great mpg test, thank you.
I was hoping the test was going to be with the manual transmission, BUT I really appreciate the fact that you actually recorded the amount of miles you drove and divided it by how many gallons you needed to refill after the trip.
Trip computers aren't always accurate so I'm glad to see you went and calculated the mpg. Also 29 seems pretty good to me considering i get about the same with my 2015 Civic Si, despite it being only 205hp, fwd only, and only 3000lbs.
no wrx is gonna drive 72 mph in a 70. at least around 80ish. lol Idk. In my area, you can usually get away with driving
@@noob.168 Every place is different, by me the freeways are all 55, so going 72 is around the top end of what you can do without getting in trouble
Much appreciated my only hold back from buying the new one was the mpg this solidifies my decision
Yeah, I know this is a sport sedan, but honestly a compact sedan with a CVT and AWD that doesn't even touch 30mpg on premium unleaded is a tough sell in 2023.
Love the vid always detailed and straight to the point. Would love if you can do a MPG test for Audi Q7 2017-19 model years on the v6 engine. really thinking of buying this car
I thought this was great considering my 2010 Impreza 5 speed gets 23 on the highway going 70 lmao
It will be interesting you take the same wrx but on manual transmission
AWD, more weight and a bigger engine . Of course the SI is going to get better MPG.
I have recently purchased a 2023 WRX Sport CVT ( Australia ) which i am in the running in period, i am almost at 1,000 kms up, using 95 premium fuel and most of my driving is longer trips at 100 to 110 kph at nice open highway crusing, the fuel usage gauge is floating at 7.4 L p/100 kms = 38mpg. This is my 5th new WRX with my last 3 CVT i have alway fund the CVT very fuel efficient. 👍 Au
That is 31.7 MPG (US). So pretty close to the test here since your average speed seems a bit lower. Good result.
I have no frouble returning on average 31 to 35 mpg around town with some distant drives, this also applies to my previous 4 WRX, i do drive with a light foot , no crazy driving like some owners. 😉 Au @@Spikejou
Did you do a test for the manual version?
subaru updated the eyesight for 2023 fwiw.
I like everything about this car except for the fuel economy. I'd never buy a new car that gets less than 35 MPG highway. This could really use a hybrid variant.
I wonder if the fact that since the cvt lugs the engine, will carbon buildup happen quicker due to the lack of rpm building?
Damn. My 8 seater Subaru ascent that has the same engine and bigger, and heavier is averaging alittle bit over 26. Am I missing something?
It is tuned differently, and the ascent is not turbo.
@@felixguzman2118 lol, bro, you need to do more research…..
@@peterretep1010 hahaha my mistake, it is. Then it does not make any sense. Looks like I am also missing something.
Probably the tuning and weight difference most likely.
I drove my 6 speed 22 WRX 400 miles over Thanksgiving. Got 28mpg all highway lol..
Was that calculated by hand or the guage?
@@occckid123 by hand. Car was reading 29
I don't know, under 30mpg for a 4 cylinder sedan is pretty terrible
@@gladdy02 it's most likely the gearing on the hwy. Probably at 3k rpm lol
What was your mph? Going 70+ will worsen it ofc I’ve heard people getting 35+ at 60 mph
I like Subarus...but AWD all the time kills the MPG. Wish there was an option of when to engage and disengage like you have in other brands.
my 2017 impreza limited gets 35mpg city the cvt is the reason
Totally Agree on the mpg but I like having traction all the time, fwd cars get iffy when driving in rain, snow, gravel, trying to be fast for any reason etc
Tell me about it. My A3 40 TFSI quattro does close to 40mpg in similar conditions.
I Agree Act,read my comment 👍 Au@@ActUnXpctd
im doing mostly city driving, small distance. only getting 17 mpg :(
😂
It does not get good MPG because the CVT has quite a short ratio up there. Same problem as my forester XT. Can get about 40mpg at 60mph, but goes down to 30 at 70.
Not bad at all. Not great either. Like you, I feel the competitors blow this out the water on the highway
My Elantra N does about 36 mpg.
AWD?
The eyesight on this car is not my favorite. It's more like the 2020 outback which had issues. The one in the Forester Wilderness is superior imo.
Like someone said, I think the gear ratios are all wrong. No way a 271HP engine needs to work at 3K RPM to move a 1600 Kg car at highway speeds. 6th, 5th and maybe 4th gears should be way taller.
There is no gears.
@@514aamevery car has gears. One is automatic the other is standard (manual). Both have gears just one you have to manually select them.
@@drakeklein6459 No, the WRX automatic does not have gears, it is a CVT, variable ratio, it literally does not have gears. It has a chain driven by 2 cones and it varies ratio all the time, it does not have gears. It can simulate them, but no gears in that CVT or any CVT (except Toyota that has a launch gear and then the CVT)
It would want to have good fuel economy because it's not fun
Legacy or WRX? I still don't understand how Legacy gets better mpg though.
wonder what it gets at 55mph or 65mph
Technically you do not have to run premium in the new wrx it's only recommended as shown on the gas door sticker
Also it’s the same engine as the ascent, outback and legacy turbo models. However it has a different tune. I plan on getting a WRX and using premium for the break in period and the regular after that. Thank you for paying attention instead of everyone saying it has to run premium.
@@Blazed_Flex I mean pretty much any turbo engine should run premium… just because you can run regular doesn’t mean you should - you risk early detonation doing that and can blow your engine up.
You youtubers really need to respect thr CVT and stop trying to dismiss it every chance you get
Agreed, Chris was reprimanded and released.
I'll just have to drive a Subaru with eyesight. I don't understand comparing it to kia or Hyundai. Have driven them their adaptive cruise is garbage.
Is this TheTopher ???
Naw but dailymotor, tedward, topher, etc are all part of WindingRoad I believe.
Chris here is Substitute Topher. TheTopher is also named Chris. Charlie is the other journalist for Daily Motor. And Winding Road has contributions from Tedward, Charlie and Substitute Topher as well as the Topher himself.
Well summarized.
@@DailyMotor thank you! I've become a big fan since learning of you guys from the Topher himself. I enjoy the reviews with both of you guys since it adds that extra bit of humor and insight into the vehicles.
@@SerPurple51 That's what we go for! Trying to add something to what everyone else on the internet says about the same cars :P
Its overpriced though, $43K for this? Nah.
